Platform Token Recovery Framework

1. Optional Settlement Access (Reassure Alliance Framework)

This document provides a simplified, high‑level overview of an optional Buyback Program operated by Reassure Alliance. All rights, obligations, eligibility criteria, and calculation methods are exclusively governed by the Buyback Program Purchase Agreement and related contractual documentation between the Participant, NodeLink, and Reassure Alliance.

NodeLink offers eligible participants access to a contractual settlement framework provided by Reassure Alliance.

This framework defines how predefined downside scenarios are handled after the five-year participation period, if certain conditions are met.

It is important to clarify:

  • This is not insurance

  • This is not a guarantee

  • This is not an investment product

It is an optional, contractual settlement mechanism relating to hardware participation, and does not provide any guaranteed profit, yield, or investment return.


2. Cost of Accessing the Settlement Framework

To access the settlement framework, participants pay a one-time settlement access premium, calculated as a percentage of their participation cost.

2.1 Base Calculation

The settlement access premium is calculated on:

  • The cost of the NX1 device

  • Plus the total amount usedon Participation Units

2.2 Timing & Rates

  • Within 6 months of participation:

    • Premium = 25% of total participation cost

  • Between 6 months and 12 months:

    • Premium = 35% of total participation cost

  • After 12 months:

    • Settlement access is no longer available

This structure encourages early clarity and avoids retroactive risk assumptions.


3. Settlement Evaluation at Year Five

At the end of the five-year participation period, an objective evaluation takes place.

The system assesses:

  • Total amount spent by the participant (device + participation units)

  • Total rewards actually received over five years

All evaluations and settlement calculations are performed in accordance with the Buyback Program Purchase Agreement, including any reconciliation or corrections of output values recorded on-chain.

3.1 Scenario A — Rewards Below Participation Cost

If the participant has received less than the total amount they used, the predefined settlement mechanism will activate.

In this case:

  • The difference between:

    • Total participation cost

    • Total rewards received

  • Is settled contractually by Reassure Alliance

Example:

  • Total spent: USD 10,000

  • Total program rewards actually received after 5 years: USD 9,000

  • Settlement difference: USD 1,000

That difference is settled according to the contract terms.

At this point:

  • Responsibility transfers as defined in the settlement agreement

  • Reassure Alliance assumes ownership and long-term responsibility for the relevant infrastructure rights

3.2 Scenario B — Rewards Equal or Exceed Participation Cost

If the participant has received equal to or more than their total participation cost:

  • No settlement obligation exists

  • The framework is considered not activated


4. Treatment of the Settlement Access Premium

The settlement access premium is not a fee and is not consumed by default.

4.1 If the Settlement Is Activated

  • The participant receives the settlement difference (as described above)

  • One year after the five-year participation period, the original settlement access premium is returned in full

4.2 If the Settlement Is Not Activated

  • The settlement access premium is returned in full

  • This return occurs after confirmation that no settlement obligation exists

In both cases, the premium functions as a conditional contractual deposit, not a cost of protection.


5. What This Framework Is — and Is Not

What It Is

  • A predefined contractual settlement mechanism

  • A way to clarify downside responsibility after long-term participation

  • A governance tool designed for infrastructure participation

What It Is Not

  • An insurance

  • A capital guarantee

  • A guarantee of profitability

  • A risk elimination

Participation in NodeLink always involves uncertainty and long-term dynamics.


6. Why Reassure Alliance Is Involved

Reassure Alliance engages only where it has completed independent assessment and has conviction in the long-term relevance of the infrastructure.

Its role is limited to:

  • Defining settlement logic

  • Assuming responsibility under predefined conditions

  • Operating with multi-cycle time horizons

It does not promote outcomes or market performance.
